To celebrate and commemorate Singapore’s 50th birthday, the development of a specially designed multi-rotor aerial craft that has a flight endurance of 50 minutes using advanced digital fabrication methods is proposed.

Potentially useful in disaster rescue missions as well as coastline protection and surveillance, these microrobots were inspired by the emergent behavior of social insects, flocks of birds and schools of fish.

An efficient solution to tackle first and last mile transportation challenges, the Autonomous Bike or AutoBike features an Android phone as the vision and guidance system.

Inspired by a species of huntsman spider, this robot can transform, roll and somersault.

Network models are often used to represent large-scale systems across a diverse range of applications, including finance, neuroscience, biochemistry and social dynamics.

Highly relevant in Singapore’s densely populated urban setting, the Indoor Relative Positioning System localizes the positions of mobile users in an indoor environment.

The project aims to determine the location of the camera when the query image is taken without GPS assistance.

This research project proposes a novel approach that that incorporates simulated human crowd flow patterns into the design of middle-scale built environment layouts (e.g., shopping mall, campus, station terminal, theme park).

High-energy and power-dense lithium-ion batteries are necessary to propel the development of portable electronics.
